The Schnöz (razor pen holder)

Initially, there were concerns about housing Xacto holders alongside pens and small tools, so we created a dedicated space just for them. Later on, we opted for a pegboard solution, which is why I'm sharing the original design with you - it's perfect for craftsmen who value quick access to their tools. The Schnöz's shape was a happy accident. I aimed to create a holder that used a fulcrum to maintain a 45-degree angle for the handle, and a triangular footprint seemed like the most logical choice. In the future, I plan to develop a "funneling" system that ensures the blade always emerges vertically, regardless of how you insert the holder. Due to my preference for printing thick shells (around 2mm), even with 15% infill, the Schnöz turned out to be a substantial object. If you want to save material, I've included an "unweighted" version featuring a small recess in the bottom - simply attach a magnet or glue in some ball bearings or hex nuts.
